I got up early this morning, infact i only sleep for half an hour after i created the new blog. See, i was very excited with this new blog already that i spent hours to create it.
Since it was not raining, i took the advantage to do my pedo-walk. What is a pedo-walk? It's a term i created myself actually where i need to walk (i can't run after my ankle surgery) 10,000 steps per day and i have this pedometer on me to ensure that i made those steps. 10,000 steps mean i have lost 500 Kcal which made my intake (daily meal) balance with my diet. Since i expereinced being admitted into the hospital twice, i really took a great care on my health. I don't want to be hospitalised for the 3rd time!
Pedometer helps to track the distance i walked and the steps i've taken.

Here's what i got from the net. I'm in a no 4 catagory... Not bad..
Based on the best evidence as of the end of 2003, Dr. Catrine Tudor-Locke recommends the following:Classification of pedometer-determined physical activity in healthy adults:
1) Under 5000 steps/day may be used as a "sedentary lifestyle index"
2) 5,000-7,499 steps/day is typical of daily activity excluding sports/exercise and might be considered "low active."
3) 7,500-9,999 likely includes some exercise or walking (and/or a job that requires more walking) and might be considered "somewhat active."
4) 10,000 steps/day indicates the point that should be used to classify individuals as "active".
5) Individuals who take more than 12,500 steps/day are likely to be classified as "highly active".
